Rock Climbing!



So after a day of hanging (literally) out with some of my lovely CYF-ers, I got in my car to head home and a song came on. It made me think and really completed my day. Everything got put into perspective: the climbing, depending on another person so you won't fall, and then the sense of accomplishment in reaching the top all seemed to be tied together with this verse/song (I'm sure you all know it...)

Psalms 36:5-6

Your love, Oh Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the highest mountain, your justice like the great deep.

Spend your week climbing with God. (c:

Love you guys! Kristin

It's at Stone Moves which is off of 1960 and Cutten @ 2pm. It costs $10 to get in, $4 for a shoes, $2 for harness and $3 for Kristin (optional). You have to sign the waiver, http://www.flashbuilder.net/host/johncmuse/Waiver.pdf but let me make this clear....THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL CHURCH EVENT. We will not be meeting here before hand, so meet us there if you can go.

By the way....if you haven't answered the survey yet....go ahead and answer....we'd love to know what you think. Also, leave a comment at the bottom of the post if you can make it, so we have a fair idea of how many people will be coming.

Verse O' the Day!!!


OK....so i'm sitting in the youth office, thinkin about what to do next....Dustin and Lindsey are sitting next to me, so i thought I'd get them to give me a Verse O' the Day. Here's what they came up with:

"Don't envy evil people or desire their company. For their hearts plot violence and their words always stir up trouble" - Proverbs 24:1-2

What Lindsey thinks: Don't hang out with evil people. Evil people get stuff quick and easy but short lived. But good people have long lasting success.

What Dustin thinks: Just be careful with who you hang out with. Your friends have a big impact on your actions.

What do you think? Please let us know any deep insights or if this verse has meant anything to you today! God Bless Ya!

New Youth Interns!!!

Sarah Pattillo

Howdy! I am a junior at Texas A&M University and cannot wait for the summer to get started so that I can meet each one of the kids and get to know them better! We have a ton of things planned not only so the kids have a ton of fun but also to help them step out in their faith. It will be summer of growing and learning not only for the kids but for me as well! I hope to see you around!


Brenton Jayatilaka

G’day! My name is Brenton “Soccer Mom” Jayatilaka (I ride in the church mini-van). I am x-tremely excited about working with everyone this summer, and seriously passionate about spreading the love of God to the youth. However, I’m also looking forward to exposing the youth to the impacting side of the Gospel, and how Christ calls us to step out on our faith daily; which can sometimes be uncomfortable. I pray that by the end of this summer that not just the youth, but I also will be changed by God’s presence and the fellowship of believers at this church.

OK, so this week...

First order of business. We will not be having Wednesday night Bible studies for the next two weeks. Starting in June, we will be having Bible studies at ya'lls house!! YAY! So, if you would like to host one, make sure it's cool with the 'rents first and then notify us.

This sunday, we do not have fellowship! I KNOW CRY ABOUT IT!!!! However, June 4th , it all starts again! Woooooo hoooooo. June 4th is also an important day because we will be re-enacting a small version of Youth Sunday. I believe we will be singing "How Great is Our God" and Chesley will be giving her senior moment. The practice for this service will be May 31 (wednesday night) from 6:30-7:30.

Wednesday June 7th - Mandatory Mission Trip meeting @ 7:30pm in the youth room. Come with you balance owed and all your papers!!

I know you guys are getting ready for finals and such this week, but you have two brand new interns that are sitting in the youth office twiddling their thumbs......SO COME HANG OUT WITH US!!!! We should be up here and around all day, if you wanna come hang....please do....PLEASE!!!! We'd love to get to know ya better!

Also, Start getting excited about the summer!! The calendars will be coming out very soon so be looking for them.

That's all we got.....but the Bible has got heaps more....it's a pretty good book....you should read it sometime......here's a starter:

"If you are thirsty come to me! If you believe in me, come and drink! For the Scriptures declare that rivers of living water will flow out from within." - John 7:37-38.

Love you guys,

Kristin and Brenton
